Both of us, dear,

Both of us, dear,
Yes, both,
The last soft rustling of these elms shall hear.
And then shall go,
To sit beneath the tree of life;'' and SO
Why should we fret
That one the '1eaves of healing" first will
get?
Both of us, dear,
Yes, both,
Shall for the last time see the ripples clear
Of yonder brook,
And then upon the living waters look.
Why should it seem
So hard to wait an hour beside the stream?
Both of us, dear,
Yes, both,
The peariy gates shall some glad day draw
near,
And enter in,
Freed from this load of suffering and sin.
How blest we are
If one, going first, can hold the gate ajar.
Both of us, dear.
Yes, both,
Shall see the last faint twilight disappear
From, this low window where our clasped
hands are.
Why feel dismay
If i, for you, should seek the upward way?
Both us. dear,
Yes, both,
Shall learn the fnal lesson of year,
And then shall rise
To the Great Master teaching in the skies.

ANENT WARDEN REED.
Reed Has a Weak Case.
Glencoe Register.

Glencoe Register.
The investigation of the charges
against eX-Warden Reed, of the Still
water prison, shows that very loose
methods were practiced in doing bust
ness and not only by the ex-warden, but
several other prison officials, were living
off the state and were public plumber
ers. 1t is evident that prominent BUSH
ness men throughout the state were in a
ring" and that they will do all they
can to cover up their tracks, and shield
the eX-warden. We take but little
stock in the charge of immoral
conduct, supported by convict
testimony. Reeds personal character
for uprightness would seem to dispel
such an idea. His attorney, however,
has sought to divert public attention
from his client by interpolating in his
answer charges against the Warden
StordOck, which are not relevant to the
case. These charges are weak, INSULT,
cient, and have no foundation in truth,
and should not influence them in their
present hearing. We hope Mr.. Reeds
character will not be smirched or his
reputation impaired, but it begins to
look as though he had very weak case,
when the SlumS and houses of illfame
in st, Paul are resorted to for rebutting
testimony

Look Ont for Rice.

Lltcnheld Ledger.
The st. Paul GLOBE has got fellow
making cartoons, and in one of his lat
est efforts he pictures McGill, Gibbs,
Merriam, Gilman and Rice in a grand
war-dance for the next governorship of
Minnesota. We would suggest that he
look ''leedle oudt'' or that man Rice
will have the scalps of all those other
braves dangling at his belt. The people
in the western and northern part of the
state are kind of stuck" on his politi-
cal and official shape, and are liable to
freeze to him like a blizzard to coal
heap. The northwest is fast getting
to be the big end of the dog and
the wagging is liable to change ends at
most any moment. Rice's appointments
of committees in the last senate were
highly satisfactory to the farmers you
know. Then, too, he is a crippled vet
eran and good solid man-just such
one as the people ought to tie to. Guber-
Material lightning will strike him or
some one Of the dozen other good men
that live out this way.

Stordock as am
Wilkin County Gazette.

The Saltwater scandal is giving the
country newspapers plenty of copy for
their typesetters. But the daily press
appears to be very unwilling to express
any opinion upon the subject editorially.
Mr.. Stordock is an old resident of Will
kin country and we can say in truth that
he is trusted and highly esteemed by
all who know him. His own people will
refuse to believe any of ex-Warden
Reeds lawyers stories against him.
Reed has been seriously charged but he
cannot clear himself by calling Stordock
another" 1t is our candid opinion
that Warden StOrdock believes these
charges of immoral conduct against
Reed, though he will find it hard work
to prove them with the witnesses he has
produced. The trouble is, that Stor-
dock, though first rate fellow, is rather
inclined to the sensational in politics,
and believes in advertising-in other
words, has weakness for notOriety,
and we fear that a mistake has been
made in bringing ex-Warden Reeds
conduct into question, relying on the
testimony of people who are so hard
ened in crime that perjury is small
matter in their ewes.

Inclined to Excuse Reed.

Rochester Post.
The charges brought by the present
Warden Stordock against his predeces-
sor consist in the first place, of allega-
tions of improper relations by Reed
with some of the female convicts, women
of the vileSt character and whose word
is absolutely worthless. To that sort of
evidence Capt. Reeds denial ought to be
sufficient answer. 1t is an outrage upon
justice to promulgate charges against
decent man that are based only upon
the statements of vile women. Such
testimony ought not to be heard against
any one, and an officer in the position
of warden is entitled to protection
against any such assaults on his char
acter. The fact that Warden Roed has
always stood well in the estimation of
those best acquainted with him and the
evident vindictiveness of his successor,
Stordock, in bringing the charges against
him. clearly entile him to a strong pre-
sumption in his favor, while the eager
ness of Stordock to blacken the repnta-
ton of Reed, and the dirtiness of the
means he has takn to do so,with his dis
position to use the Office for the gratifi-
cation of personal spite, show him, at
least, to be utterly unfit for any honor
able position.

Another Sin.
Caledonia ArguS

CdIeuOula ArguS.
Another sin of commission emitting
that last legislature to political damna-
ton was the passage of the bill abolish
ing convict labor for hire in any avoea-
labor. From being nearly self-support-
ing the state prison will soon become an
annual charge on the state of at least
half million year. Just what the
prisoners can be put at where they will
not compete with free labor is the
enigma over which the state prison
board is puZzling its wits. They might
be put to saving air or chopping sand
or turning grindstones on which moth
ing is ground, but there can be no pro-
ductive labor at which they can be put
which will not compete with some free
labor somewhere.

But 1t Served Him Right.

washington Star.
The broad charge of inaccnracy is so
often hurled against the whole frater
nifty of journalists that thousands Of
thOughtless persons, on learning how
Editor Murat Halstead has been mis-
quoted, will shout in chorus that it
Served him right What Mr.. Halstead
is briefly charged by the photographers
with saying is that Mr.. Blaine does not
want to be president of the United
States. What Mr.. Halstead undoubt-
edly did say is that Mr.. Blaine is not
giving himself any uneasiness about the
presidency, but is actually doing what
he processes to be-seeking rest and
recreation. 1t is to be hoped that no
politician will be foolish enough to
found his course of conduct in respect
to next years campaign on the theory
that Mr.. Blaine has quilted politics and
would not take the presidencyif it were
offered him. The man in American
public life who would do that is yet to
be discovered, and it will take pretty
long search to find him.

A Most Absurd BIunder.

Pipestone Republican.
Ex-Warden Reed may not be guilty
of all he has been charged with in his
official capacity at the Saltwater peni-
Tertiary. To convict man of previous
good character solely upon the evidence
of thieves and murderers, is not just the
thing; but, whether he is innocent or
guilty, he certainly takes very poor
plan when he attempts to shield him.
self by charging every one else with
crime. Either Reed or his lawyer have
made most absurd blunder in their
reply to the charges made, by making
counter charges against Stordock,
prominent politicians and the Republi-
can party generally. It's too much like
the mad boy crying ''you're another"

The Work of Publication.

IVsIOH I6PVIUIICdH.
The Investigation of ex-Warden Reed
has resulted in an answer by the ac-
cused that will lead to the ventilation of
the crookedness that disgraced the last
republican state convention and came
near electing Dr.. Ames governor. If an
unprovoked assault upon the character
of Mr.. Reed leads to the exposure of
political rascality he can afford the in
convenience imposed upon him. The
people must insist upon knowing all the
facts that they may turn the raseals
out" Gov. McGill must aid the inves-
tigation by every means in his power if
he would escape the suspicion of COM
pIicity in the damnable tricks of bosses
and their INSCRIPTIONS helpers. Now
is good time to commence the work of
publication.

FALLING IN LINE.

And so Brother HENRI WATTERsoN
also has fallen in line with the bows.
Whether his change of heart was due to
Brother JOSEPH PUI.ITZER's confession
to the true faith, or whether his ex-
ample led to the retaining of the New
York journalist from the path of error
in which he was treading, matters little.
The conversion has taken place, and
both now see in President CLEVELAND
the only true prophet.
The brilliant Kentuckian, from a con-
dition of desperate doubt, haunting fear
and carping criticism, has passed into
state of beautiful serenity, based upon
the thorough conviction that GROVER
CLEVELAND, and he alone, can lead
the Democratic hosts again to victory.
This is a state of unanimity we are
pleased to see. The active work of the
next campaign will begin before long.
and it Is well that the boys should
line up.
There is straight road, but it won't
do to have any stragglers impeding the
line of march. The boys, too, are
shrewd. They observe the sentiment
of the country very clearly, and not
merely the Democratic sentiment either.
Naturally they want to be in accord
with it. There are not MANY of the
wanderers and scoffers left, shut there
are still few. Potent indeed is the
unsatisfied craving for office in influence
ing the minds which control certain edi-
tOrial pens.
But there are gratifying indications
that by the time the next convention is
over there will not be a single deserter
from the camp. And now if Brother
DANA would only join the other two
distinguished journalistic brethren who
have found rest in timely conversion,
Whata genuine love feast we could have,
to be sure.

a 100000 less taxes, that we
